Finally watched the movie Thor and I gotta say that I was pleasantly surprised. I put it off after the disappointment of most of the recent movie adaptations of comic books.

I must admit that I have never really been a fan of Thor, mostly reading about him in Avengers comics. He just seemed to me like a boring guy with a hammer that talked like someone out of the Bible.I guess looking back at it I shouldn’t have been so surprised that I liked the movie considering the one version of Thor that I enjoyed was from The Trial of the Incredible Hulk. The new movie starts off exciting and and doesn’t really have any dull moments. They have great actors including Anthony Hopkins and Natalie Portman. Even the actors that I didn’t know of were fantastic.

There was also plenty of things that I remember from the comics like Volstagg and The Rainbow Bridge. I would definitely suggest this movie for any fanboy, action-movie lover, or just someone who wants to see a decent movie. Check it out.

Also, on a side note, considering how I surprisingly also enjoyed the Captain America movie I am actually pretty excited to see the new Avengers movie.

Favorite Thor quote   Thor:   “He’s fine! We drank, we fought – he made his ancestors proud!”

One dumb thing about the movie   Everyone wore their helmets during the ceremony at the start of the movie but did not wear them during any fights.
